“…The wear and corrosion failures are the main reasons of this degradation [18]. When these implant materials, showing excellent corrosion resistance under static conditions, are subjected to wear, the passive oxide film can be removed allowing active corrosion to occur whilst the alloy repassivates [19].…”

“…Much research effort has been devoted to the study of the tribological behaviour of the Ti-6Al-4V alloy [3,7,18,20,[22][23][24][25][26][27]. Its wear resistance was investigated in dry as well as in wet conditions using one or more of lubricating liquids that simulate the body fluid environment.…”

“…Its wear resistance was investigated in dry as well as in wet conditions using one or more of lubricating liquids that simulate the body fluid environment. Most of the tribological studies used surface-treated Ti-6Al-4V [3,10,18,26,27]. However, there is only a limited work done on the wear behaviour of the new Ti-13Nb-13Zr alloy.…”

The aim of this study is to compare the tribological behaviour of novel orthopaedic implant alloy Ti-13Nb-13Zr with that of the standard Ti-6Al-4V ELI alloy, available in four different microstructural conditions produced by variations in the heat treatments. The friction and wear tests were performed by using a block-on-disc tribometer in Ringer's solution at ambient temperature with a normal load of 20-60 N and sliding speed of 0.26-1.0 m/ s. It was found that variations in microstructures produced significant variations in the wear resistance of Ti-6Al-4V ELI alloy. The wear losses of materials solution treated (ST) above the b transus temperature are significantly lower compared with those of materials ST in the (a ? b) phase field and are almost insensitive to applied load and sliding speed. Wear loss of the (a ? b) ST Ti-6Al-4V ELI alloy continuously increased as applied load was increased and was highest at the highest sliding speed. The Ti-6Al-4V ELI alloy in all microstructural conditions possesses a much better wear resistance than cold-rolled Ti-13Nb-13Zr alloy. Friction results and morphology of worn surfaces showed that the observed behaviour is attributed to the predominant wear damage mechanism.

“…Usually, corrosion is accelerated by wear, and similarly wear may be accelerated or slowed down by corrosion [19]. Hence, a number of titanium alloys have been employed to study the wear and corrosion behavior in different simulated physiological solutions [20][21][22][23][24][25][26].…”

Wear and Electrochemical Corrosion Behavior of Biomedical Ti–25Nb–3Mo–3Zr–2Sn Alloy in Simulated Physiological Solutions

The wear and electrochemical corrosion behavior of the biomedical Ti-25Nb-3Mo-3Zr-2Sn (TLM) titanium alloy was investigated in various simulated physiological solutions. Different simulated physiological solutions comprised phosphate-buffered solution (PBS), PBS with bovine serum albumin (PBS?BSA), and PBS with hyaluronic acid (PBS?HA) were employed. A potentiostat and a reciprocating friction and wear tester were used to study the wear and corrosion behavior of the TLM alloy. The influence of the chemical composition of the simulated solutions on the tribo-electrochemical behavior was considered by potentiodynamic studies under reciprocating friction and wear conditions. It was found that the corrosion tendency of the TLM alloy was the most obvious in PBS?HA under static corrosion condition, while it was just opposite with wear. Compared with static corrosion, the corrosion resistance of the TLM alloy was decreased with sliding conditions. The values of i corr were two orders of magnitude higher than those at static corrosion. This phenomenon shows that the wear accelerated corrosion. Under coexisting condition of both electrochemical corrosion and wear, the wear rate of the TLM alloy mutually influenced by both factors will be accelerated. Plastic grooves and deformation were observed on the worn surfaces of the TLM alloy by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Through the observation of SEM, the tribological mechanism was a typical corrosive wear, and the main wear mechanisms were abrasive with adhesive wear under the interaction between corrosion and wear. The XPS results show that the passive films include the TiO

Laser cladding of the Ti 3 Al+TiB 2 pre-placed alloy powder on the Ti-6Al-4V alloy in nitrogen protective atmosphere can form the Ti 3 Al+TiB 2 /TiN composite coating, which can dramatically improve the wear resistance of the Ti-6Al-4V alloy surface. In this study, the Ti 3 Al+TiB 2 /TiN composite coatings on the Ti-6Al-4V alloy have been researched by means of X-ray diffraction, SEM and energy dispersive spectrometry. It was found that there is a metallurgical combination between the Ti 3 Al+TiB 2 /TiN composite coating and the substrate. The microhardness of the Ti 3 Al+TiB 2 /TiN composite coatings were 3~4 times higher than that of the Ti-6Al-4V alloy because of the actions of the Ti 3 Al+TiB 2 /TiN hard phases and the grain refinement strengthening. Moreover, the wear mass losses of the Ti 3 Al+TiB 2 /TiN composite coatings were much lower than that of the substrate.
